Progressive in 3 qualifying runs at the end of 2025 but pulled up on his 2½m course handicap debut in January. Back down in trip.
|
Hurdle/dual Flat winner in 2024 but has failed to trouble the judge since, failing to see his race out again when eighth of 15 over 2½m at Newcastle in first-time blinkers (retained) 24 days ago. It remains to be seen whether a drop back in trip makes a difference.
|
Fair maiden on the Flat. Modest form over hurdles, finishing 15 lengths second in 2m Southwell maiden 15 days ago. Handicap hurdle debut.
|
Bumper winner. Yet to better modest form over hurdles but was entitled to need last month's handicap debut for a new yard after an absence. Could last longer now.
|
Poor maiden under Rules. Reportedly bled when last of 5 in a 2m Hexham novice in December. Off since. Stable back in form of late.
|
Winner of handicaps at Fontwell in August and Uttoxeter (2m, good to soft) in October. Below par back from 11 weeks off at Catterick on New Year's Day but returns from a similar length of break with his stable in form.
|
Long-standing maiden over hurdles but was runner-up off higher marks at Perth last autumn. Given a break since running poorly on his first start for this yard at Doncaster in November and Sean Bowen booked on return. Also refitted with a tongue tie.
|
Multiple winner on the Flat who came good for the first time over hurdles when seeing off 7 rivals in a C&D handicap (soft) 19 days ago. Had a bit in hand and should remain very competitive off 8 lb higher.
|
Fair maiden on the Flat for Ed Walker. Has yet to translate that ability to hurdles but possible he could fare better now handicapping after a breathing operation.
|
Fourth in a bumper and 2 juveniles from his 5 career starts and appeals as a potential improver now handicapping for the first time. On the shortlist.
|
Fair maiden on Flat (stays 1½m) in Ireland. Beaten a long way in 3 juvenile hurdles for Dan Skelton but could easily prove a different proposition now handicapping after 4 months off (has had breathing operation). Very interesting, particularly if backed.

Forecasts
Berry Edge (2/1), Ice Jet (4/1), Roland Garros (8/1), Cawthorne Banker (8/1), Ashdown Forest (8/1), Mystical Martika (10/1), Golden Millie (12/1), Big Love (12/1), Sweeper System (20/1), Kopa Kilana (25/1), Justus (33/1)
The vote goes to Dan Skelton handicap newcomer ICE JET back from a breathing operation, with confidence in his chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Big Love is another who rates a potential improver on his first start in the handicap ranks and is second choice ahead of last month's C&D scorer Berry Edge.
